JEM condemned the verdicts as invalid and unconstitutional. JEM spokesman Ahmed Hussein Adam said in a statement released to Radio Dabanga the move is a clear breach of the goodwill agreement signed between JEM and the government in February last year. Hussein Adam labeled a court that issued such verdicts as terrorists and old fashioned inquisitionist’s.
